BOGUS HORSE RAcING.-To man I'D a
tree 1t looks like the managers of the
Pomeroy race track had determined
that horses from the upper country
should never take a nickel out of Gar
field county. Several parties from Neg
Perce and Idaho counties attended to
enter horses but were informed that the
purses were pulled down, as they could
not afford to see outside horses walk off
with the stakes. Garfield county brags
OF its fast stock, but the truth is there
isn't hoof in the county that they dare
run for money. Sporting men will do
we'll to give the Pomeroy track a wide
berth, and no respectable association
Will ever include Pomeroy in its circuit.
Although Camas prairie is young i'm
horse racing it will guarantee to do all it
advertises. We invite all lovers of fast
stock to give us chance, and in return
we tell you that the purses will be hung
too high to be pulled down and if out
side horses can walk off with the chips
they shall be cordially welcome to
them.

THE RACE TRACK.
an Important Enterprise That
UiU Benefit HOrsenaen.

The organization of the Idaho County
Jockey Club few weeks since has crys-
talized into shape, and owing to the
enterprise of Capt. VIM. Hawlev and
=. B. Wood, the result is a half.mile
track adjoining Grangevile that would
be credit to community possessed Of
| ten times the wealth and population
that Camas prairie has. The track is
only 300 yards distant from town, and is
true circle except for brief stretch Of
straight ground for the home run, Il in
sixty feet wide and has been plowed.
dragged. scraped, narrowed. leveied and
rolled over and over again, until it ia
now In fine condition, and if speed Is
not attained the fault will be with the
horses and not with the track. The
course is enclosed by an eight foot high
board fence, and grand stand sixty
feet long with five tiers of seats now
being erected and will be in readiness
Tor the forthcoming races on Tuesday
next. Twelve men and twenty-four
horses have been employed on the track
Tor the last six weeks, and after visiting
1t last Sunday and driving over it in
company with Capt. Hawley we can
safely say that there is no better half
mile track in the upper country, and
certainly there is none on which 40
much work and trouble has been expen-
ded in putting it in good condition.
The races on Tuesday next will be the
first ever run over the new track, and
successful sport is anticipated.
An effort will be made to hold an
annual fall meeting on this track with
purses heavy enough to induce horse
men from all parts to bring their fast
stock here to compete for the prizes.
Camas prairie ought to be included in
the Northwestern racing circuit, and we
feel satisfied that it can be ACCOMPLISHED
with the track and the stock and the
interest taken in sporting matters by
this community. The new track will
be of great benefit to the town of
Grangeville, as well as to the prairie at
large, and the general public will soon
be congratulating themselves that they
have such enterprising and public spirit
ed citizens among us as Messrs. Hawley
and Wood in undertaking a work OF
this character and magnitude. May
success attend them in all their efforts.
